You lie, Nerdberg.
One of the most famous incidents of congressional violence is the caning of Charles Sumner. In 1856, pro-slavery DEMOCRAT Representative Preston Brooks beat anti-slavery Senator Charles Sumner nearly unconscious with a cane on the Senate floor.
The caning of Sumner was not an isolated incident. Historian Joanne B. Freeman identified more than 70 violent occurrences between congressmen while researching her book, The Field of Blood: Violence in Congress and the Road to the Civil War.
In 1858, a fistfight between about 30 congressmen broke out in the House of Representatives at 2:00 a.m. when a DEMOCRAT grabbed a Republican by the throat.
In 1860, DEMOCRAT congressmen threatened a GOP congressman with pistols and canes while he spoke against slavery on the House floor.
When Republican Abraham Lincoln won the presidency in 1860, DEMOCRAT-dominated states responded by seceding and waging a bloody insurrection against war the United States of America.
On July 2, 1915, a former professor at Harvard, Erich Muenter, planted a package containing three sticks of dynamite in the Capitol near the Senate Reception room. The explosive detonated around midnight and during a time when the Senate had been on recess. An on-duty Capitol Police officer was nearly knocked out of his chair during the blast, but fortunately no one was injured. The man later wrote a letter to a Washington, D.C. newspaper saying he had planted the explosives to protest U.S. wartime aid to Britain and said he hoped the detonation would "make enough noise to be heard above the voices that clamor for war.” He then traveled to the home of J.P. Morgan in Long Island, New York and shot the financier. Morgan’s wounds proved superficial and he survived. Muenter was soon captured and detained in jail where, several days later, he committed suicide.
Leftists shot up the House of Representatives in 1954, injuring five congressmen. Peanuts Carter commuted their sentences in 1978.
On March 1, 1971, a bomb exploded in the Capitol building. While the explosion did not injure anyone, it caused some $300,000 in damage. The leftist Weather Underground claimed to be behind the bombing and said it was in protest of the ongoing U.S.-supported bombing of Laos.
Leftists detonated a bomb in the Capitol in an attempt to murder GOP Senators in 1983. A group calling itself the Armed Resistance Unit claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it was in retaliation for President Reagan's military actions in Grenada and Lebanon. Seven people were eventually arrested in connection with the attack.
Impeached perjurer B.J. Clinton* gave one of them a pardon on his last day of infesting the Oral Orifice. Now she's a fundraiser for BLM.

DARK AGES SUCK!
You will recall that I have been talking about the Revolution for months now, and I have said that the Revolution has taken full control of Washington (Because SCOTUS will either mind or be remade), and that most of America's institutions are well down the road of being controlled by the Revolution.
Your "News Flash" is misused with me.
